5 yards 2 feet 3 inches:
1 yard=36 inches; 5 yards=180 inches
1 foot=12 inches; 2 feet=24 inches
180+24+3=207 inches

9 yards 1 foot 10 inches:
9 yards=324 inches
1 foot=12 inches
324+12+10=346 inches
346-207=139 inches
John ran 139 inches fartheer than Jeremy

Jeremy: 5 yards, 2 feet, 3 inches
John: 9 yards, 1 foot, 10 inches

You need to find how many inches Jeremy and John ran. There are 36 inches in a yard, so multiply 5 yards by 36.
(5)(36) = 180 inches

There are 12 inches in a foot, so multiply 2 feet by 12.
(2)(12) = 24 inches

Add 180 and 24 inches to 3 inches.
180 + 24 + 3 = 207 inches

Jeremy ran 207 inches.

Now for John:
Multiply 9 yards by 36 inches.
(9)(36) = 324 inches

1 foot = 12 inches

Add 324 and 12 inches to 10 inches.
324 + 12 + 10 = 346 inches

John ran 346 inches.

Subtract Jeremy's run from John's.
346 - 207 = 139 inches

John ran 139 inches farther than Jeremy.

Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the factor theorem, if x + 2 is a factor, then by dividing the polynomial by the binomial, we are meant not to have a remainder

In this case, the remainder would be zero

So, if we set the binomial equals zero and substitute the x-value into the polynomial, we are supposed to have 0

So we have this as;

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

-2^3 -2(-2)^2 -2(a) + 6 = 0

-8-8-2a + 6 = 0

-16 + 2a + 6 = 0

2a -10 = 0

2a = 10

a = 10/2

a = 5

A wire 6 meters long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into a square for a frame for a stained glass ornament, while the
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Used wire in circle  x = 2.64 m

Used in square   L - x = 3.36 m

Total wire used 6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a wire of 6 meters long.

We will cut it a distance x from one end, to get two pieces

x    and   6 - x

We are going to use the piece x  to get the circle then

So Perimetr of a circle is 2π*r    (r is the radius of the circle) then:

x = 2*π*r    ⇒    r = x/2*π

And area would be  A(c) = π* (x/2*π)²   ⇒ A(c) = x²/4π

From 6 - x we will get a square, and as the perimeter is 4 times the side

we have

( 6 - x )/ 4  is the side of the square

And the area is  A(s) = [( 6 - x ) /4]²

Total area as function of x is

A(t)  = A(c) + A(s)

A(x)  =  x²/4π  + [ ( 6  -  x  ) / 4 ]²

A(x)  =   x²/4π  + (36 + x² - 12x) /16

A(x)  = 1 / 16π [ 4x² + 36π + πx² -  12π x ]

Taking drivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

A´(x) = 1/ 16π [8x +2πx - 12π]

A´(x) = 0    ⇒      1/ 16π [8x +2πx - 12π]  = 0

[8x +2πx - 12π]  = 0

8x + 6.28x -  37.68  = 0

14.28x - 37.68 =  0      ⇒  x  = 37.68 /14.28

x = 2.64 m   length of wire used in the circle

Then the length L  for the side of the square is  

(6 - x )/4    ⇒ ( 6 - 2.64 )/ 4   ⇒ 3.36 / 4    

L = 0.84 m   total length of wire used in the square is

3.36 m

And total length of wire used is 6 m

The function is a quadratic  function and "a" coefficient is positive then is open upward parabola there is not a maximun

To find the perimeter of this blue figure, add together the shown lengths of the six sides.  

The three measurements on the top have the LCD 4, so we combine 14 3/4, 4 2/4 and 8 2/4.  The sum is 26 7/4, or 27 3/4, or 27.75.

The three measurements on the bottom share the LCD 5, so we can immediately combine them, obtaining 32 8/5, or 33 3/5, or 33.60.

Combining 27.75 and 33.60 results in 61.35, or 61 35/100, or 61 7/20.

The perimeter of the given figure is 61 7/20.

Use the fact that the variance of a Poisson distribution is σ2=μ. The mean number of bankruptcies filed per hour by businesses i
lianna [129]

Answer:

Variance = 5

Standard deviation = 2.236

0.2650257

Step-by-step explanation:

For a Poisson distribution is σ² = μ.

Given that:

Mean , μ of bankruptcies files per hour = 5

μ = 5

For a Poisson distribution :

P(x = x) = (μ^x * e^-μ) / x!

The Variance and standard deviation :

Variance : σ² = μ = 5

Standard deviation = sqrt(variance) = sqrt(5) = 2.236

B.) Find the probability that at most three businesses will file bankruptcy in any given hour.

P( x ≤ 3) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)

P(x = 0) = (5^0 * e^-5) / 0! = 0.0067379

P(x = 1) = (5^1 * e^-5) / 1! = 0.0336897

P(x = 2) = (5^2 * e^-5) / 2! = 0.0842243

P(x = 3) = (5^3 * e^-5) / 3! = 0.1403738

0.0067379 + 0.0336897 + 0.0842243 + 0.1403738

= 0.2650257
